Drinking Liberally Auckland – the future of Auckland governance.
When: 7pm, Wednesday 29 April
Where: London Bar - corner Queen and Victoria Streets, Auckland CBD
Who: you and like-minded left-wingers. All welcome.
This month's speaker is Mayor Len Brown talking about the opportunities and issues arising out of the Government’s proposal for restructuring governance in Auckland.
Len Brown is the current mayor of Manukau and is out-and-about talking and listening to Aucklanders’ opinions on the proposed changes and their views on the future of our region.
This will be an interesting chance to hear some thoughts on the revolution happening in Auckland from one of our region’s leaders.

I very much wanted to go to this but couldn't make it. How did it go?

It was pretty good - about 90 people, Len spoke v passionately and there was some good discussion afterwards. Next month we will have Sue Bradford and Metiria Turei talking about the future of the Green movement in NZ...
